We are already very busy working on the next software update, but we do read this forum literally every single day! If it helps, I will post the reply we sent via email below so that all other users can see it. If you have any questions for our team, please feel free to contact us directly:

Software development is a complex, iterative process, and our developers are constantly trying to review customer feedback to determine a successful roadmap for our product. In fact, we have numerous people at our company, including the majority of our developers, that read and review the various sections on our forum every single day. We are truly thankful for all of the voices and opinions on the forum, as we actively use this information to help shape the future of our software.
We strive to release consistent software updates to implement many of these requested changes. Some features may take longer than others, in fact, many changes have required over 6 months of work to implement. At the same time, our company also maintains a strong focus on reliability and dependability. Larger releases such as 3.0 will frequently add a large volume of new features, but smaller releases such as 3.1 may focus more on small changes with an emphasis on fixing any known issues or bugs. This is also extremely important for many of our customers who heavily rely on our product.
As I mentioned, we do review the forum every single day, and have surely read every single thread on the site. This is intended to be a place for our users to voice their thoughts and opinions for the product, and we know our software is definitely a better product as a result of this feedback.
If there is a specific feature you are interested in, please be sure to add a "+1" post on the forum, as we frequently use the number of users that are interested in a specific feature as a metric for determining what to focus on.
